Passage 36

In English

What is the second step? Each one should enquire, “Who am I”? One should say, I am a human. Should one be satisfied with that? No! Saying, “I am human,” is only half the truth. What is the other half? The other half is, “I am not an animal.” Always repeat: I am human, not animal. I am human, not animal. When we join these two halves, we have the full truth. Truth is one, but the wise refer to it by various names ( ). It is only one that exists, not the second. Truth is one, not two.
